We show that it is possible to formulate the most general first-class gauge algebra of the operator formalism by only using BRST-invariant constraints. In particular, we extend a previous construction for irreducible gauge algebras to the…

For almost any compact connected Lie group $G$ and any field $\mathbb{F}\_p$, we compute the Batalin-Vilkoviskyalgebra $H^{*+\text{dim }G}(LBG;\mathbb{F}\_p)$ on the loop cohomology of the classifying space introduced byChataur and the…

We study the noncommutative Poincar\'e duality between the Poisson homology and cohomology of unimodular Poisson algebras, and show that Kontsevich's deformation quantization as well as Koszul duality preserve the corresponding Poincar\'e…

Derived brackets provide a mechanism for generating algebraic structures from graded Lie superalgebras, with applications in Poisson geometry, mathematical physics, and the theory of algebroids. In this paper, we present a complete…

Let q be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra and $\theta$ an automorphism of q of order m. We extend $\theta$ to an automorphism of the loop algebra of q and consider the fixed-point subalgebra $q[t,t^{-1}]^{\theta}$. Using a splitting of…

The classical Poisson reduction of a given Lagrangian system with (local) gauge symmetries has to be done before its quantization. We propose here a coordinate free and self-contained mathematical presentation of the covariant…

We consider (1+1) dimensional theory for a single self-dual chiral boson as classical model for gauge theory. Using Batalin-Fradkin-Vilkovisky (BFV) technique the nilpotent BRST and anti BRST symmetry transformations for this theory have…

We introduce natural differential geometric structures underlying the Poisson-Vlasov equations in momentum variables. We decompose the space of all vector fields over particle phase space into a semi-direct product algebra of Hamiltonian…

In this paper, we study the Poisson (co)homology of a Frobenius Poisson algebra. More precisely, we show that there exists a duality between the Poisson homology and the Poisson cohomology, similar to the duality between the Hochschild…

In this paper we prove the existence of isomorphisms between certain non-commutative algebras that are interesting from representation theoretic perspective and arise as quantizations of certain Poisson algebras. We show that quantizations…

In this short note we extend the results of Alfaro and Damgaard on the origin of antifields to theories with a gauge algebra that is open or reducible.

Change and local spatial variation are missing in Hamiltonian General Relativity according to the most common definition of observables (0 Poisson bracket with all first-class constraints). But other definitions have been proposed. Seeking…

We show that the space R^n x gl(n,R) with a certain antisymmetric bracket operation contains all n-dimensional Lie algebras. The bracket does not satisfy the Jacobi identity, but it does satisfy it for subalgebras which are isotropic under…

The antibracket in BRST theory is known to define a map $\rm{H^p \times H^q \longrightarrow H^{p+q+1}}$ associating with two equivalence classes of BRST invariant observables of respective ghost number p and q an equivalence class of BRST…

Some general theorems are established on the local BRST cohomology for not necessarily Lagrangian gauge theories. Particular attention is given to the BRST groups with direct physical interpretation. Among other things, the groups of rigid…

We introduce braided Lie bialgebras as the infinitesimal version of braided groups. They are Lie algebras and Lie coalgebras with the coboundary of the Lie cobracket an infinitesimal braiding. We provide theorems of transmutation, Lie…

We analyse in detail the local BRST cohomology in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory using the antifield formalism. We do not restrict the Lagrangian to be the sum of the standard Hilbert and Yang-Mills Lagrangians, but allow for more general…

Observable currents are locally defined gauge invariant conserved currents; physical observables may be calculated integrating them on appropriate hypersurfaces. Due to the conservation law the hypersurfaces become irrelevant up to…

The uniqueness of (the class of) deformation of Poisson Lie algebra has long been a completely accepted folklore. Actually, it is wrong as stated, because its validity depends on the class of functions that generate Poisson Lie algebra,…

We show that the specific operators V^a appearing in the triplectic formalism can be viewed as the anti-Hamiltonian vector fields generated by a second rank irreducible Sp(2) tensor. This allows for an explicit realization of the triplectic…
